Thiago is hoping for a injury-free run

Liverpool fans have been awaiting the return of Thiago Alcantara, who has been handed a difficult 14 months at Anfield with a series of injuries, and Covid as well. Ever since completing the move from Bayern Munich the midfielder has missed 138 days of action and missed 31 of the club’s 70 matches. The Spaniard played an important role in the club's victory over Porto by 2-0 in the Champions League.

The injuries created doubt about whether the 30-year-old would be able to put on a good performance once again but his sumptuous goal in the Champions League proved he is getting back to his original form. Thiago is now hoping for an injury-free uninterrupted season ahead to deliver his best and meet the fan's expectations after the £20milllion move.
